Steve: "It's A Testing Time"

19 December 2016

Boss believes Christmas and New Year will shape the reminder of our campaign.

Steve Davis, the Crewe Alexandra manager, says the Christmas and New Year period will shape the remainder of our season. Crewe slipped to a third straight defeat at Cambridge at the weekend and Davis admits that it is a ‘testing time’ as the Alex try and remain in contention for a play-off place.

Steve told crewealex.net: “It is a testing time for all of us and we all have to work hard to come through it. It is about sticking together and making sure we do the basics right.

“We will be doing everything we can to turn it around in what is going to an important period of the season. Christmas and New Year is always a crucial time and the players all know that. The next nine or ten games will indicate where you are in February and wherever you are up there challenging or down there fighting to move away from the bottom.”
